Answer:

One example of hyperbole associated with Beowulf's sword is when the narrator says, "no sword of the rest, of those forged in the world, could hold up against it, when he gripped it in his hand" (lines 1245-1246). This hyperbole serves to emphasize the power of Beowulf's sword and his prowess as a warrior.
